The Arria NLG Engine is at the heart of the Arria NLG Platform and the key to the Platform is Arria NLG Studio

Arria’s Core Technology, the Arria NLG Platform delivers a powerful form of artificial intelligence (“AI”) known as Natural Language Generation. It is an advanced and complete AI software system. It automatically writes rich, compelling narratives based on insights extracted from datasets that one would believe were written by a human subject matter expert. For the past five years, Arria has been deploying NLG systems that allow data steams to generate automated narratives that communicate directly to humans, in natural language, in multiple use cases from the most routine to the most demanding operational environments. The Arria NLG Platform incorporates two core components:

The Arria NLG Engine: The heart of the Arria NLG Platform is the Arria NLG Engine – the world’s most advanced natural language generation engine.

Arria NLG Studio: The key to the Platform is ARRIA STUDIO – the world’s first true NLG toolset for developers.

ARRIA NLG ENGINE OVERVIEW

The reporting of data insights in true natural language (called storytelling when performed by a human presenter) requires two technology groupings to operate in concert that can be thought of as performing the functions of the Expert Subject Matter Analyst on one side and the Presentation and Narration Expert on the other. The Arria NLG Engine is the world’s most advanced combination of these two groupings:

1. THE EXPERT SUBJECT MATTER ANALYSTThis function requires the ingestion of data and the analysis, interpretation and extraction of insight from that data.

Articulate Analysis: The Arria NLG Engine analyzes the data using advanced language-based AI analytics we call Articulate Analytics. The Articulate Analytics that are native to the Arria NLG Engine are comprehensive and are powerful enough to perform all the basic analytics required to derive insights from complex data sources. It should be noted that because its native analytics are language-based, the Engine can automatically express its analysis as true natural language narratives. It can also express its output as traditional tabulated reports and visualizations and any combination of them all.

It should be noted that the Engine can also ingest and generate true NLG narratives not only from complex raw streams but also from streams of data insights that have already been extracted from client data using their existing advanced AI applications.

2. THE PRESENTATION AND NARRATION EXPERTThis function requires the both the arrangement of the insights into reports and also the delivery of the reports in a voice and via delivery methods that are appropriate to the audience reading the reports.

Natural Language Generation: Advanced natural language capabilities must be used to automatically communicate insights derived from data in such a way that humans will accept the machine generated output. The Arria NLG Engine automatically generates either reports, explanations or summaries (“narratives”) about the insights using truly natural language.

Narrative Output: The Arria NLG Engine delivers the true NLG outputs to documents, applications and dashboards, 24/7/365, with each narrative written in a voice appropriate to the recipient.

ARRIA NLG STUDIO OVERVIEW

ARRIA STUDIO is the world’s first true NLG design tool that gives developers (from novice to expert), as well as non-developers, the ability to:Build Arria NLG applications that permanently capture the analytical and writing skills of a subject matter expert in the NLG application software.Build Arria NLG applications that will 24/7/365, automatically (or on-demand):

Send a request to the Arria NLG Engine for it write a narrative about a dataset

Receive the expertly written narrative back from the Engine

Deliver the narrative outputs to documents, applications and dashboards.
